... the game you're interested in on ebay has this as a description.

"Not sure if it works or not...too lazy ( cheap ) to place batteries in."


I mean really. If you go through the bother of placing an ad on ebay, why not go that extra distance and slap some cells in the darn thing.

Some of them already did, but found out that it was not working... easier to say that it was not tested and have some luck and sell it a fair price !!!

It's the same thing that you find when you search for old computer parts .
NOT TESTED! Laughing
C'mon it will be more fair to say DOSN'T WORK !!!.
As we say here in Italy : "the mother of the stupids is allways pregnant!" So there allways be someone who thinks it could make a bargain out of it!

Good snag... didn't even see those. I already have them, but I need a new box for my white one... I'd have gone for that one. Cool

They are neat games, and it's actually kind of fun to play.

Yeah ! I put a much higher bid and I was quite shure that someone of you big boys would have counterbid on them.
